Plastic chain links offer lighter weight, corrosion resistance, and quieter operation, ideal for clean environments and moderate loads. Metal chain links provide higher strength, better heat resistance, and durability in harsh industrial conditions with heavy loads or abrasive environments.
The bending radius should be at least 10 times the diameter of the largest cable or hose being protected. Always follow manufacturer specifications and consider factors like cable type, movement speed, and expected service life to prevent premature failure.
Yes, specialized chain links made from high-temperature thermoplastics (PEEK, PPS) or metals can withstand temperatures up to 250°C. Always verify material specifications and consider thermal expansion effects on performance.
